Ding Dong. Friday`s at the door
and even though it`s keeping its social distance
it`s still delivering awesome.
I`m Carl Azuz delivering your Friday edition of CNN 10.
We`re starting at the grocery store and
we`re going to need some extra cash.
In the month of April, price of groceries grew 2.6 percent
according to the U.S. Labor Department.
So if a family spent $1,000 on groceries in March,
they would have needed an extra $26 for those same groceries in April.
The 2.6 percent increase was the biggest jump from one month to the next since 1974.
You can guess why this happened.
It`s another side effect, really a series of them, to the ongoing corona virus pandemic.
When restaurants shutdown and businesses closed,
more Americans started cooking at home.
So demand for groceries went up
but then many food producers and farmers had trouble quickly shifting their deliveries
from those restaurants to grocery stores.
It`s a very complex process
and there`ve been outbreaks of COVID-19 in some food processing plants
forcing some of them to shutdown.
So there`s this perfect storm of increase demand,
jarring changes in delivery and reduced supply
but on top of all that some shoppers started panic buying.
Picking up lots of food that they didn`t plan to eat right away.
So to keep certain groceries in stock,
stores put limits on the amounts people could buy.
They`ve also raised prices to discourage people from buying so much
and to recover some of the extra money they`ve had to pay to suppliers.
Meat, eggs, bread, cereal, soup, soda, fruit and coffee
all went up in April.
Some prices went down though.
Ham, breakfast sausage, butter, prepared salads and cupcakes got cheaper.
As stores and shoppers made adjustments to the ways they responded to all this,
technology has found some fascinating new roles in this changed way of life.

From space where satellites are recording the impact of the virus on human movement,
to phone apps meant to trace the contacts of infected people,
to the quest for a cure.
Scientists and engineers are fighting COVID-19 at every turn
and for celebrity scientist Bill Nye, that`s a good sign.
We absolutely have the science and technology to address this virus.
But there are big challenges.
First, figuring out what really works.
Remote temperature sensors, for example,
have become all the rage to try and spot virus carriers.
A leading manufacturer FLIR reports
$100 million worth of new orders even though the company explicitly says
its product is not really intended to detect people with the virus.
Second, focus.
Public health experts fear
all the scattered efforts to bring science and technology to bare will be significantly diminished
if they are not coordinated with overarching plans for testing, tracing and treatment.

You can`t address a virus that can cross the borders at the speed of the wind
without having a national or indeed international program.
And third, time.
For all the promises, science offers no large scale solutions are expected quickly
especially when it comes to a vaccine.
At best it might be months just as likely --
It`s two years everybody. Two years before a vaccine.
Even with all the technology we have now?
Yes. I think two years to get something that people trust.
Until then the research, the waiting
and the robot war on COVID-19 will go on.

Gatherings at this park are not allowed.

:10 TRIVIA
10 Second Trivia.
What country has the smallest population in Central America?
El Salvador, Belize, Panama or Costa Rica.

Though El Salvador is smaller in land area,
Belize has the smallest population in the region.

:10 TRIVIA

It`s fewer than 400,000 people according to the CIA World Fact Book
while El Salvador population is 6.5 million
and though Belize has struggles including poverty and unemployment.
It`s small economy benefits tremendously from tourism.
Because it`s the next stop in our ongoing series of virtual vacations,
you`re about to see why.

The Central American nation of Belize is only about the size of Massachusetts
but it packs a powerful punch for travelers seeking adventure or relaxation.
Belize is easy to visit for a bunch of reasons.
First is the language.
It`s - - it`s a former British Colony so
English is the official language and everybody speaks it.
Also, the money is really easy.
Everybody accepts U.S. dollars down there.
Belize is rich in really a lot of natural attractions
and it`s very easy to get between them either by driving, plane or boat.

A drive along the Hummingbird Highway stretching from the coastal town of Dangriga
to the capital Belmopan gives visitors a glimpse of the country`s varied landscapes.
You could make the drive in just over an hour but
there`s so much to see along the way.
Why rush?
The Hummingbird Highway is one of the most picturesque routes in Belize.
It runs over jungle mountains, down into valleys that are covered with citrus orchards.

It has some spectacular scenery.

As the sun rises in Dangriga near the southern end of the highway,
fishermen cast their nets collecting bait for the day.
Traveling northwest on the Hummingbird,
a stop at Marie Sharp`s Hot Sauce Factory will wake up your taste buds.
Marie Sharp started making hot sauce in her kitchen
when she found she had grown more peppers than she knew what to do with.
Now she has a factory that will process 1 million pounds of peppers
from local farms this year.
Just up the road you can check out Billy Barquedier National Park.
The park is managed in part by a grassroots community organization
and the protected area supplies local communities with potable water.
For the tourist, it offers hiking trails and a beautiful spot for a refreshing dip.

Now that you`ve worked up an appetite,
grab a quick and tasty lunch at Ms Bertha`s.
Ms. Bertha Lisbey has been making and selling tamales for decades
and she`s certainly perfected the art.
After lunch you can dive into St. Herman`s Blue Hole National Park.
Some of the great attractions at Blue Hole
includes over 298 species of birds.
There is the green jungle that - - that is abound --
it`s everywhere and then the accessibility.
It`s right along one of the main highways of Belize
and it`s only a 15 minute drive from the capital of Belize Belmopan.

For explorers, the park includes an opportunity to check out St. Herman`s Cave.
What's in the cave there`s a lot of remains of the Mayans
There`s some bones, potteries, pottery shards
still left in there dating back a couple thousand years ago.
Take a dip in the Blue Hole,
a 25 foot deep senote or sinkhole formed when a limestone cave collapsed.

Water is always refreshing. Temperature is always stay the same. It's so nice to swim.
After a long day of hiking, Why not take jump into a Blue Hole.

Another option, cave tubing.
A popular activity in Belize and a great combo of adventure
and relaxation until your next stop on Hummingbird Highway.
For CNN, I`m Holly Firfer.

딩동, 금요일이 왔습니다
사회적 거리두기가|계속되고 있지만
금요일이 오면 여전히 신나죠
금요일 소식을 가지고 온|CNN 10의 칼 아주즈입니다
먼저 식료품점 소식인데요
여유 자금이|더 필요하겠습니다
미국 노동부에 따르면|2020년 4월 식료품 물가가
2.6% 증가했습니다
3월에 한 가구의 식료품비가|1,000달러였다면
4월에는 같은 품목을 사는 데|26달러를 더 지출한 셈이죠
한 달 식료품 물가 상승률로는|1974년 이후 최대치라고 합니다
그 이유는
현재까지 기승을 부리고 있는|코로나19 팬데믹 때문입니다
식당은 영업을 중단했고|회사도 문을 닫아
집에서 요리하는|사람이 늘었죠
식료품 수요는 급증했지만
식품 생산업자와 농부들이|공급처를 식당에서 식료품점으로
재빨리 변경하기는|어려웠습니다
이는 매우|복잡한 과정인 데다
코로나19 확진자가 나온|몇몇 식품 가공 공장은
영업을 중단했기 때문입니다
수요는 증가했지만|운송에 차질이 생겨
공급이 줄어드는|최악의 상황이 되었고
일부 소비자들은|사재기를 시작했습니다
당장 먹을 필요가 없는|음식까지 사고 있죠
특정 상품의|재고 유지를 위해
상점에서는|구매 수량을 제한했습니다
또한 소비자가 너무 많이|구매하는 것을 막고
공급업체에 밀린 대금을|확보하려고 가격을 인상했죠
고기, 계란, 빵, 시리얼, 수프|음료수, 과일과 커피 가격이
4월에 모두 올랐습니다
반면 물가가|하락한 것도 있죠
햄, 소시지, 버터, 시판 샐러드|컵케이크 가격이 내려갔습니다
상점과 소비자가 물가 상승에 대한|대응 방법을 조정했듯이
기술도 바뀐 생활 방식 속에서|매력적인 새 역할을 찾았습니다

바이러스가 인간의 움직임에|미치는 영향을 기록하는 위성에서
감염자의 연락처를 추적하고|치료제를 탐구하는
휴대폰 앱에 이르기까지
과학자와 기술자들은|밤낮으로 코로나19를 연구합니다
저명한 과학자 빌 나이는|좋은 징조라고 합니다
우리는 코로나19를 해결할|과학 기술을 보유했습니다
하지만 고려할 것들이 있죠
첫 번째로 정말 효과가|있는지입니다
예를 들어|원격 온도 감지기는
바이러스 보균자 선별용으로|널리 쓰이는데요
선두 제조업체인 플리어는|원격 온도 감지기 제작 목적이
바이러스 보균자 선별용이|아니라고 밝혔지만
신규 주문이|1억 달러에 달한다고 합니다
두 번째는 집중입니다
공중 보건 전문가들은
검사와 추적, 치료를 위해|아무리 철저히 계획을 세워도
과학과 기술이|제대로 못 따라 주면
모든 노력이 허사가|될 수 있다고 걱정하죠
바람의 속도로 국경을 넘나드는|바이러스에 대처하려면
국가적 또는 국제적으로|접근해야 합니다
세 번째는 시간입니다
모든 조치에도 불구하고|과학계는 백신만큼은 대량으로
서둘러 연구하지 않습니다
기껏해야 몇 달이겠죠?
2년은 지나야|백신을 맞을 수 있습니다
해결 가능한 기술이|있는데도요?
네, 백신을 검증하는 데|2년이 걸리죠
그때까지는|코로나19 시대에 걸맞은
다양한 로봇들도|쏟아져 나올 겁니다

공원에서는 집합 금지입니다

10초 토막 퀴즈
10초 토막 퀴즈
중앙아메리카에서|가장 인구가 적은 나라는?
엘살바도르, 벨리즈|파나마, 코스타리카

엘살바도르의|땅 면적이 더 작지만
벨리즈는 중미 국가 중|인구가 가장 적습니다

10초 토막 퀴즈

'CIA 월드 팩트북'은 엘살바도르|인구가 650만 명이고
벨리즈는 40만 명이|채 안 되는데
빈곤과 실업 문제를|겪고 있다고 합니다
관광객 수입이|이곳 경제를 책임지고 있죠
CNN 10과 함께 떠나는|'가상 휴가'의 다음 목적지이니
같이 확인해 보시죠

중앙아메리카에 속한 벨리즈는|매사추세츠주 크기 정도이지만
모험이나 휴식을 찾는 이들에겐|강한 매력이 있는 곳입니다
벨리즈는 여러 면에서|접근성이 좋아요
첫째는 언어인데요
영국의 식민지였기 때문에
공용어가 영어라|모두 영어를 사용해요
게다가 화폐 문제도 간단하죠
모든 곳에서|미국 달러가 통용돼요
벨리즈는 다채로운|자연 명소가 아주 많은데
자동차나 비행기|또는 보트를 타고
쉽게 방문할 수 있어요
차로 허밍버드 고속도로를 타고|당그리가의 해안 도시에서
수도 벨모판까지 가는 길에|다양한 풍경을 엿볼 수 있습니다
차창 밖으로|볼거리가 가득한데
운전은 1시간밖에 못 하죠
왜일까요?
허밍버드는 벨리즈에서 풍경이|가장 그림 같은 도로예요
오르막엔 정글이 있고
내리막엔 감귤 과수원이|뒤덮은 계곡이 있죠
정말 장관이에요

고속도로 끝 남쪽에 위치한|당그리가에 해가 뜨면
어부들은 미끼를 모으려고|그물을 던집니다
허밍버드 도로|남서쪽으로 가다가
'마리 샤프' 핫소스 공장에|들르면 미각이 깨어나는데요
마리 샤프는|대량으로 수확한 고추로
집에서 핫소스를|만들기 시작했습니다
지금은 지역 농장에서 받은|약 454톤의 고추를
가공할 수 있는 공장이 있죠
더 위로 가면 '빌리 바퀘디에|국립공원'이 있습니다
'풀뿌리 단체'가|이 공원을 관리하면서
보호 구역에 있는 식수를|지역 사회에 제공합니다
여행객을 위한 하이킹 코스와|아름다운 물놀이 장소도 있습니다

이제 핫소스로|미각을 깨웠으니
점심을 먹으러|베르타에게 가 보죠
베르타 리즈베이는|수십 년간 타말레를 만드는데
그 맛이 정말 예술입니다
식사를 하고 '세인트허먼 블루홀|국립공원'에서 다이빙을 합니다
유명 관광지인 이곳에는
298종이 넘는 새들이|살고 있습니다
풍성한 나무와|풀들이 가득 차 있어요
사방이 나무숲이고|접근성도 좋죠
벨리즈 수도 벨모판에서|고속도로를 타고
15분 정도만 운전하면|바로 이 국립공원에 도착합니다

탐험가들은 '세인트 허먼 동굴'|관람도 가능합니다
동굴 안에는 마야인의|유물이 많아요
몇천 년 된 뼈와 도자기나
도자기 파편들이|동굴 안에 남아 있죠
블루홀에 들어가 볼까요?
석회암 동굴이 붕괴되면서
약 8m 깊이의 구멍이|생겨났습니다
물이 늘 깨끗하고 일정 온도를|유지해서 수영하기 좋죠
종일 하이킹을 하고 나면|블루홀에 들어가고 싶어질 거예요

또 다른 선택지는|동굴 체험인데요
벨리즈에서 인기 있는 활동으로|허밍버드 고속도로 위의
다음 목적지까지 모험과|휴식을 다 즐길 수 있죠
